The New Year brings opportunities to start fresh, try something new, get rid of the outdated and create new experiences that will turn into memories. Your guests have a choice where they dine. And a lot of variables determine how they make their decisions – from proximity to atmosphere to the food served. More often than not, what’s on your menu counts heavily toward this choice. “Let’s go here for wings, “This place has the best fish fry,” “I’m craving surf’ n turf”. We’ve all uttered these words from time to time. Food has the power of persuasion. And as chefs, you have the tools to channel this power and transform an ingredient or protein into something masterful.

Let’s get creative in 2017. Consider chocolate or beef for breakfast. Try different ways to use emerging, trending ingredients such as turmeric and sardines, or use purple cauliflower or other veggies to replace rice and pasta.Consider coconut oil instead of olive, and add nuts and berries to sauces, chutneys and sides to enhance flavor and texture. Skip the added chemicals and processing – the more pure and natural the ingredients used, the better. The possibilities are endless. Opportunities, vast. Applause, bountiful.
